If the media and the DNC and the RNC have a problem with the Donald, then he has qualities I might like.

If he is capable of doing a veto when they try to raise the debt limit next time, that alone would be worth the price of admission.

Think about that. Debt is oxygen to the Donald: every major project he's ever worked on has been leveraged to the max, and his businesses have gone through bankruptcy four times. I think he'd want to increase the debt ceiling every chance he got. :twocents: :lol:
Dick Cheney was right... :nod:

You can borrow for the things you like, print more money, kick the can down the road, and blame the other guy for it all. :lol:

Dirty little secret...voters really don't care either.

That is a possibility, but I guarantee that the usual party puppets will do as their told. Hillary will just like Obama did and the bush's did and wild bill Clinton, etc...

I agree, the fix had been on ever since the puppet masters got us off the gold standard and on the federal reserve printing press. Both parties dance to the same power brokers, libertarian is good IFF they stay true to their ideals ... but how do you verify they are for real?

The Romney-Obama cycle was nothing like this one, certainly not to the level of "your guy is worse than our guy" type of bullshit being thrown around.

I still love how people think voting for Johnson is somehow cool or smart. It's neither.

That's your opinion. Writing yourself in or leaving the ballot blank are morally defensible options, I suppose, but this year there's no better way to support a limited government/socially tolerant view, with some critical mass, than voting for Johnson.

No shit Sherlock. Are you happy with the choices? Look, Johnson is a fucking idiot... to the same proportion as Trump. Is anyone actually voting for Johnson because of Johnson? Very, very few. The difference is I know that not voting doesn't send a message but you guys thinking carrying Johnson to a 5-6% figure does.

That's your opinion. What's the issue with voting for a 3rd party? It takes away votes from a Republican or Democrat? They don't have a shot (yet people bitch about the lack of choices)?

Aww boo hoo, Johnson isn't concerned with foreign affairs. Waaahhh. He would do no worse than Hillary "Reset Button" Clinton on the foreign stage. And don't even pretend like Trump has a clue on anything. :dunce: :lol:

And yet voting Johnson is a bad thing. :rofl:

Provide your weighted interest to those two (is one more important to you than the other?). Is it 50/50?
If it isn't 50/50, do the leading candidates (DJT and HRC) oppose each other on these two points, and which one leans more to your lean?

I figured it was implied since all you do is bitch about folks voting for the guy. So really you are just bitching because you have nothing better to do. Have a glass of cranberry juice and chocolate bar, that should ease you until this terrible feeling passes in a few days.
